Don't confuse transferred epithets with personification, a figure of speech in which an inanimate object or abstraction is given human qualities or abilities. One of literature's best examples of personification is a descriptive line from the poem "Fog" by acclaimed American poet Carl Sandburg:

"The fog comes on little cat feet.”  

Fog doesn't have feet. It's vapor. Fog can't "come," as in walk, either. So, this quote gives fog qualities it cannot have—little feet and the ability to walk. The use of personification helps to paint a mental picture in the reader's mind of the fog stealthily creeping in.
